Celebrating Our Colleagues and Values at the First NIS Excellence Awards

Last Friday we celebrated a proud moment for our organisation with the inaugural NIS Excellence Awards. It was an opportunity to recognise the members of Team NIS who have shown exceptional commitment to our values and helped shape our culture.

We announced winners and highly commended colleagues across five categories:

Respect
Protect
Commit
Inspire
Excellence

Thank you to everyone who contributed to making this first celebration so meaningful and congratulations to all the nominated, highly commended and winning members of Team NIS. We look forward to building on this success in the years ahead.
